Testimonials
"Integrity. Wholeheartedness. Keen pastoral insight.
Strong scriptural teaching. Docility to the Holy Spirit. Love
for God's people and the Church. These are the phrases that
come readily to mind when I think of my friend, Mark Nehrbas.
He is an outstanding Catholic layman whose years in pastoral
ministry have forged him into an effective teacher. Mark's
commitment to the family, to strengthening men, to Catholic
education, to renewal movements in the Church, have contributed
to making him an excellent speaker. He recently addressed a
group of leaders in the Charismatic Renewal in the South and
everyone found his teachings to be superb. My husband and I
regard Mark as one of the 'bright lights' in the Church today."
~ Patti Mansfield, New Orleans, LA
"Mark speaks with great impact. He has a commanding
presence and an effective delivery that calls forth a committed
response.
He is knowledgeable in the areas of renewal, evangelization,
and community. He always stays on the topic, within the time
frame and links his message to what has preceded him."
~ Fr. Michael Scanlan, T.O.R.
